Home My WebLink AboutTimes-Advocate, 1979-06-20, Page 6Page 6 Times-Advocate, June 20, 1979 Cottage cheese popular A summer taste treat The consumption of cot tage cheese shows a generally steady increase over the past 25 years. We’ve developed a tast for its mild, slightly acid flavor and discovered its high nutritional value. Regular cottage cheese is a soft uncured cheese made from skim milk, skim milk powder and harmless acid producing bacterial cultures. The curd contains no more than 8 percent moisture, according to Food and Drug Regulations and has no added fat. It provides about 179 Cal per 250 ml. But most people seem to buy the creamed product which contains at least four percent milk fat. 250 ml of this cheese yields 244 Cal. Two percent cottage cheese has a calorie count between the two. Cheese is a concentrated form of milk, which is our main source of calcium and of riboflavin, one of the B vitamins. Cheese is also an excellent source of high quality protein - a 60 g (2 oz) serving of cheese can replace a serving of meat. It’s also a good source of vitamin A. Serve it in salads with fresh fruits or vegetables, and in dips, baked goods, main dishes and desserts. Celebrate the warm weather with “Strawberry Cottage Cheese Crepes” from Food Advisory Division, Agriculture Canada. Note that the recipe uses metric measures. Cottage cheese sold in metric sizes will be phased in by January 1980. It’s available in most places in 250 g, 500 g and 1 kg con tainers.

And when we wake up, hear us screech! To some people, summer means bugs, burns and bother, but a true blue summer person doesn’t complain about any of those things. See him wince silently when you shake his blistered hand; see him quietly stretch his aching back. Watqh him shake sand from his towel into his eyes without saying a word. See him comb sand from his hair and wrestle pebbles from his the drone of the tractors and the creak of the implements. See the dogs running alongside. * Farmers work the soil, sow the seed and then work the soil some more. They work in the sunshine, and after the seed is planted, they watch for clouds hoping for rain that will make the crops grow. See them wipe the sweat from their brows, knowing there is always more work to be done. Some summer people keep in shape by jogging around the country roads or prac ticing their backhand on the tennis court or playing a torrid game of frisbee in the park. Hear them thud; hear them swoosh; hear them laugh. Others make a dash for the nearest beach or swimming pool. Hear them splash their cares away. Then there are summer people who prefer a ham mock, a shady tree and a good book to pass the ternoon. Hear them rustle* pages; hear them sigh, them nod off to sleep. Yours truly belongs another group of summer people. We look for a sandy beach, a grassy lawn or a picnic table —- any spot that attracts sunshine. Hear us slap on the suntan By ELAINE TOWNSHEND Gardeners must be among the most dedicated of all summer people. Watch them dig, pull, prune and thin, See them dash out on frosty nights to cover tiny plants. See them hoe and pull and thin some more. Hear them swat at bugs; hear them mutter. See them bend to their task again, then straighten their backs and stretch. They stand with hands on hips and view with satisfaction the greening of the soil. They walk carefully between the rows until they spy the rewards of all their toil, tender sweet vegetables rfeady to pick — onions and radishes and carrots to pull, beans to snip, peas to pod, lettuce to clip. See them scrape, peel slice, wash and cook. Hear the crunch, the snap and the exclamation, “Boy, that’s good!” Meanwhile working on larger plots of land are other summer people — farmers. See their dusty faces, their caps pulled low, their bare brown backs, their greasy hands and arms. See them down a thermos of cooling drink and munch a sandwich “on the go.” “Making hay while the sun shines” makes sense to them. lotion. See us stretch out See the clouds of dust, hear lapping up the sun. Hear us hoe, » sneakers. See him wait while a frog « hops across his path. Watch him as he listens to a mosquito buzz. Hear him crunch his hot dog; see him scoop the fly from his coffee, and see him smile.
